Danielle Lewis, an up-and-coming singer, performed background vocals. "My goal with this recording is to not only entertain families this holiday season, but to spread love and peace," he explains. "I hope that my fans get a sense of hope, love of friends and family, as they listen to these two songs," says Green. "The music was easy to write. The lyrics required me to reconnect to my childhood experiences during Christmas." In addition to Green's brilliant song, "Christmas With You", Green puts his personal musical arrangement on "This Christmas", a remake of Donny Hathaway & Nadine McKinnor's mega hit. Delina Brooker, also an Atlanta up-and-coming singer, performed background vocals. "This Christmas" is the most popular contemporary soul and R&B song in the Christmas song repertoire," The music is sure to appeal to the entire family.
